Graphical user interfaces

Having covered command-line applications, we're now going to move onto how to create graphical applications using PHP. This is quite a jump from all other sorts of PHP programming, so you may find you need to read through this chapter a few times to get the hang of things!

Author's Note: The extension used in these chapters, PHP-GTK, has not been updated in a long time, and is probably dead. I'm leaving it here for reference in case the project springs to life again, but I'm not expecting much.
